Damn, Manolo’s Bakery is now closed for the time being, due to the level of CBP activity on Central Avenue.
Hey Charlotteans, one thing you can do to help right now is visit immigrant-owned restaurants and other businesses. Their traffic is way down right now since a lot of their customers are trying to stay home.
Much of the Queen City’s immigrant community is staying out of sight.

Hey so “underage girls” are…children. The word you’re looking for is children. They’re not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. They’re children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

THIS is what power looks like. Starbucks baristas are standing tall, with their shoulders back and their heads high, and they’re showing the world what it looks like to demand a fair contract.

BREAKING: After months of stonewalling by Starbucks, unionized baristas just voted 92% to authorize a ULP strike unless Starbucks finalizes fair contracts & stops union busting.
If forced, our baristas will strike in dozens of cities on November 13 – the company's busiest sales day of the year.
